ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

 

Overview of Our Business

 

Oroplata Resources, Inc. was incorporated on October 6, 2011 under the laws of the State of Nevada. Our principal office is located at #5 Calle Gregorio de Lora, Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic and our registered agent's office is located at 123 West Nye Lane, Suite 129, Carson City, Nevada 89706. Our telephone number is 809-970-2373 and our e-mail address is "getup84@hotmail.com".

 

We are an Emerging Growth Company as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act.

 

We shall continue to be deemed an emerging growth company until the earliest of—

 

(A) the last day of the fiscal year of the issuer during which it had total annual gross revenues of $1,000,000,000 (as such amount is indexed for inflation every 5 years by the Commission to reflect the change in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, setting the threshold to the nearest 1,000,000) or more;

 

 
3
 

 

(B) the last day of the fiscal year of the issuer following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of common equity securities of the issuer pursuant to an effective registration statement under this title;

 

(C) the date on which such issuer has, during the previous 3-year period, issued more than $1,000,000,000 in non-convertible debt; or

 

(D) the date on which such issuer is deemed to be a 'large accelerated filer', as defined in section 240.12b-2 of title 17, Code of Federal Regulations, or any successor thereto.

 

As an emerging growth company we are exempt from Section 404(b) of Sarbanes Oxley. Section 404(a) requires Issuers to publish information in their annual reports concerning the scope and adequacy of the internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting. This statement shall also assess the effectiveness of such internal controls and procedures.

 

Section 404(b) requires that the registered accounting firm shall, in the same report, attest to and report on the assessment on the effectiveness of the internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting.

 

As an emerging growth company we are exempt from Section 14A(a) and (b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which require the shareholder approval of executive compensation and golden parachutes.

 

We have irrevocably opted out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards pursuant to Section 107(b) of the Act.

 

Our Company is a start-up, exploration mining company formed to explore mineral properties in the Dominican Republic or elsewhere in the world which, hopefully, will contain gold and other precious minerals.

 

The Company purchased, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Oroplata Exploraciones E Ingenieria, Orexi, S.R.L (herein known as "Oroplata Exploraciones") a 100% interest in the Leomary Gold Claim ("Leomary") consisting of 4,500 mining hectors (approximately 11,100 acres) located in the province of Monseñor Nouelan, municipality of Bonao. On September 1, 2014 the Director of Mining for the Dominion Republic cancelled the Leomary Gold Claim resulting in the Company no longer having any mineral rights to the Leomary. The Company has identified and acquired the mineral rights to a claim located in the Dominican Republic called Mogollon Gold Claim.

 

Oroplata has not earned any revenues to date and we do not anticipate earning revenues until such time as we have undertaken sufficient exploration work to identify an ore body. Exploration work will take a number of years and there is no certainty we will ever reach a production stage. Our Company is considered to be in the exploration stage due to not having done exploration work which would result in a development decision.

 

Our director has advanced $81,650 by way of paying on behalf of the Company certain expenses relating to office and past exploration work on the former Leomary mineral claim as well as providing additional funds for working capital.

 

As at September 30, 2015, we had $9,946 in cash on hand and current liabilities of $101,666 resulting in a negative working capital position of $(90,720).

 

From our inception on October 6, 2011 through to September 30, 2015, we raised $80,000 in capital in a private placement by issuing 40,000,000 shares of common stock at the price of $0.002 per share to our former sole director. Subsequent to September 30, 2015 we have raised no further funds other than advances from our director for payment of certain Company expenses.

 

We have one wholly-owned subsidiary called Oroplata Exploraciones E Ingenieria, Orexi, S.R.L which was incorporated under the laws of the Dominican Republic on January 10, 2012.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

 

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

 

Mogollon Mineral Property

 

The Claim called "MOGOLLON" is located in the province of San Juan, municipality of Juan De Herera and an assortment of other small municipalities such as San Juan de la Maguana and Bohechio and near the villages of Solorin, El Toro Lado and La Cienaga. The coordinates to the Mogollon are shown in the following s chedule of relevant information below. The claim has easy access due to having paved roads and paths crossing the Mogollon.  

 

 

The above map was prepared by Francisco Garcia in Marc h 2016.

The following map shows the size of the Mogollon claim. One inch equals one mile.

 

 

The towns surrounding the Mogollon are Yaque, Buena Vista, San Juan and El Corbano.

 

Oroplata is required to maintain the Mogollon in good standing with the Ministry of Mines by undertaking exploration work on the claim and complying with the requirements occasionally set forth by the General Directorade of Mines.

 

Our professional geologist , Mr. Francisco Antonio Jerez Garcia, has visited the Mogollon mineral claim on several occasions.

 

 
6
 

 

Our sole officer and director, Mr. Ruben Ricardo Vasquez, has not yet visited the Mog ollon claim but once exploration takes place he will definitely visit the claim but for how many days at this time is unknown .

 

Oroplata has only the rights to the minerals on the Mogollon.

 

There are no agreements with anyone regarding the Mogollon claim and there are no royalties attached to the ownership of the mineral claims on the Mogollon . A list of land owners is shown of page 8.

 

There is a good access by the west part of the claim as it has roads and paths that cross the concession.

 

Process of Acquiring the Mineral Rights to the Mogollon Claim .

 

In the Dominican Republic, the following process is required in obtaining the m ineral rights to the Mogollon claim.

 

-

Filing of an application involves two publications in a Dominican newspaper and the annual payment of fees of $100 – already paid.

-

All mining titles are to be delivered to a Dominican Republic company. Exploration titles may also be delivered to individuals or a foreign company, with certain exceptions (e.g. government employees or their immediate relatives and foreign governments).

-

Resolutions granting mineral title are issued by the Secretaría de Estado de Industria y Comercio (currently Ministry of Industry and Commerce) following a favorable recommendation by the Dirección General de Minería.

-

A company may have exploration and mining titles over a maximum of 30,000 hectares. An exploration title is valid for 3 years and may be followed by two one year extensions. At the end of the 5 year period, the owner of the title applies for an exploitation permit, or a new round of exploration permitting may be started at the discretion of the mining department.

-

An agreement must be reached with surface rights owners (formal or informal) for each phase of exploration work. If mining is envisioned, land must be bought. A procedure exists in which government mediation is used to resolve disagreements, and this process may ultimately end in expropriation at a fair price.

-

Legal descriptions of exploration and mining concessions are based on polar co ordinates relative to a surveyed monument. The monument location is defined in UTM co ordinates, NAD27 datum. The concession boundaries are not marked or surveyed.

 

The Mogollon claim is a mining concession which is lode but at the present time is exploration but will apply within the next few years for an exploitation concession. The claim is a state mining claim where only government permits are required.

Tireo Formation

 

The geological unit of greater extent and power in the Central Dominican Cordillera is the Tireo Formation, which consists of a sequence of volcaniclastic and sedimentary rocks of more than 4000 m thick, interbedded with volcanic flows intruded by plutonic and hypabyssal rocks. The first references that allude to the Tireo Formation are due to a geologist in his report in 1966 mentioning them. Based on chemical analysis of volcanic rocks, a subsequent geologist in 1991 divided the unit into a lower and upper Tireo Group, suggesting as source material detrital material to the Siete Cabezas Formation essentially.

 

In the studied area, the cartographic units that are differentiated from base to top in Tireo Formation are: massive volcaniclastic rocks or laminated with interbedded subordinate lava and limestone, massive andesitic flows and interbedded with volcaniclastic terms, and limestone pleated in white, red and gray tones. On the Formation volcaniclastic proximal facies change essentially NW SE volcano-sedimentary facies and distal. The Tireo Formation is calcalkaline chemistry, representing its position in the Central Cordillera axis of magmatic activity linked to bow II stadium Superior Cretaceous-Eocene (AICC).

 

BIOCHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF UNITS OF THE CENTRAL DOMINICAN MOUNTAINS

 

Igneous rocks that form the Dominican Cordillera Central are variably deformed, metamorphosed, retrograded and altered. These processes have led to the formation of new minerals such as amphibole, epidote, chlorite, white mica, albite and Fe-Ti oxides. Therefore, the geochemical interpretation of these rocks must be careful as to have undergone a metamorphism and / or alteration should be considered potential elements such as Sr, Rb, K, Na and Ba mobility. However, Zr, Nb, Th, Hf, Y, Ti, Cr and REE elements are relatively immobile and can be used to evaluate the magmatic affinities of rocks belonging to the various units that make up the Central Cordillera. Their geochemical characterization will allow establishing relationships between the different units and discriminating the possible tectonomagmátic build environment.

 

GEOLOGY

 

The mineralization of greater economic interest in the Dominican Republic corresponds to massive sulphide ores of hydrothermal replacements and laterite concentrations. The massive sulphides are preferentially located in the Maimon Formation and formations Los Ranchos, Duarte, Tireo and Peralvillo. In the Maimon Formation have been identified several Prospects Massive Sulphide mineralization such as: Cerro Maimon, Loma Barbuito and Loma Pesada.

 

The epithermal mineralization are preferably in the Formations Los Ranchos and Tireo, where you can highlight the tank sulphides Pueblo Viejo (Au, Ag, Zn) the deposit of Managua (Au, Ag) Deposits and Centenario (Au) and Candelones (Au).

 

 
9
 

 

The case of Pueblo Viejo is very particular, if the hypothesis that relates to Maar is true, the chances of a similar system there are very limited. If the situation is that proposed by a geologist in 2000 in which the epithermal system associated with massive sulfide and acidic domes is correct, then there are more chances of finding similar systems.

 

The assessment of areas with mining potential of metallic minerals is related to geodynamic processes developed in Hispaniola, in origin related to plate tectonics. The evolution of the Caribbean Plate presents different episodes of continuous transformation; this evolution is also lithological with input from volcanic material and intrusion of plutons and subsequent metamorphic process.

 

During these developmental periods areas affected include those between Hispaniola island arc formation in the Upper Jurassic and Cretaceous to Eocene, although there is evidence of Quaternary volcanism without major contributions of metallic ores.

 

The most representative tectonic events are associated with the contribution of volcanic rocks and large primary guidelines where this feature is in line with its geotectonic framework that is particularly favorable to the formation of various types of mineralization, many with great importance and economic significance. The global metallogenic analysis match the extraordinary fertility of the fields of island arc for the genesis of mineral deposits, especially regarding major types, such as hydrothermal volcanogenic massive sulfide (VHMS), epithermal, including porphyry copper deposits.

 

Other than obtaining the mineral rights to the Mogollon claim and having the geologist prepare a report on the claim no exploration work has been undertaken to date.

 

The state of the current exploration program and its results will depend upon the exploration work performed as set forth in the schedule under the heading of "Past and Future Exploration Expenses" .

 

To obtain positive results in the exploration program, efforts were directed to develop a mining project exploitation of metallic minerals, to meet the current needs of the international market.

 

The Company has not undertaken any exploration on the Mogollon concession but it is expected to do so before the end of 2016.

 

The conditions that must be met to retain the Mogollon claim are that Oroplata must pay approximately $12,000 in exploration work on or before April 30 th of this year and an additional $100 to obtain a Certificate from the Ministry of Mines. The latter amount has been paid but Oroplata has not yet received the Certificate. The Company has requested an extension of 45 days prior to having to complete the exporation program and should receive a response from the Ministry of Mines prior to the end of April. Normally the extension is granted. It has not undertaken yet the exploration work on the Mogollon. Oroplata is responsible for paying all the above noted fees.

 

Within the immediate 45 days there are no detailed plans to conduct exploration on the Mogollon claim. Subsequent to that date the Company will be required to conduct exploration work on the Mogollon or lose the rights to the minerals thereon.

 

Presently the Company does not have the available funds to undertake the initial exploration program on the Mogollon unless its sole director is prepared to advance the initial funds, the Company undertakes a private place by offering its shares in the market or has the director guarantee a line of credit with a financial institute. None of these options has been considered at this time.

Compliance with Government Regulations – Essentials of Mining Laws

 

In the Dominican Republic the laws relating to mineral exploration and development are contained under the "Mining Law of the Dominican Republic – Law No. 146". The important components of the mining law are as follows:

 

-

Filing of an application involves two publications in a Dominican newspaper and the annual payment of fees.

-

All mining titles are to be delivered to a Dominican Republic company. Exploration titles may also be delivered to individuals or a foreign company, with certain exceptions (e.g. government employees or their immediate relatives and foreign governments).

-

Resolutions granting mineral title are issued by the Secretaría de Estado de Industria y Comercio (currently Ministry of Industry and Commerce) following a favorable recommendation by the Dirección General de Minería.

-

A company may have exploration and mining titles over a maximum of 30,000 hectares. An exploration title is valid for 3 years and may be followed by two one year extensions. At the end of the 5 year period, the owner of the title applies for an exploitation permit, or a new round of exploration permitting may be started at the discretion of the mining department.

-

An agreement must be reached with surface rights owners (formal or informal) for each phase of exploration work. If mining is envisioned, land must be bought. A procedure exists in which government mediation is used to resolve disagreements, and this process may ultimately end in expropriation at a fair price.

-

Legal descriptions of exploration and mining concessions are based on polar co ordinates relative to a surveyed monument. The monument location is defined in UTM co ordinates, NAD27 datum. The concession boundaries are not marked or surveyed.

 

The documents and requirements a company would be required to file in order to obtain a license for mining exploration are as follows:

 

1.

Name, nationality, address, profession, identification number of the applicant or their agent or the holder of a corresponding special power.

2.

At the present time the Company does not have the available funds to complete the above noted exploration program.

 

The Mogollon claim is without known reserves and the proposed program is exploratory in nature.

 

The following represents the sampling points on the Mogollon which the geologist recommends taking various soil and rock samples.

 

 

The geological justification for exploring the Mogollon claim is that the Dominican Republic over the years has resulted in numerous gold producing properties as well as copper properties. Even though gold prices per ounce and copper prices are low compared to prior years, management feels that if these metal strengthen over the next several years and if an ore deposit is found on the Mogollon, the Company might be able to proceed to extracting minerals from the Mogollon. There is no assurance that any ore deposits of commercial quality will be found on the Mogollon.

 

The geologist who will be conducting the proposed exploration work on the Mogollon is Francisco Garcia. He graduated from the Instituto Tecnico del Cibao Oriental – ITECO in the Province of Sanchez Ramirez and obtained a degree of Engineer of Geology and Mines in 1991 and Master's of Science in 1994 from the same university. In 1996 he worked for M&M Minerals and in 1998 he was employed by Minera Hispaniola, SA where he was involved in exploration and drilling. He worked there until 2002 when he was employed by Placer Dome Dominicana and in 2003 and 2004 worked as a geologist for Cementos Cibao and in 2005 until 2010 was employed by Cemex Dominicana in planning selective mining, crushing and stacking of ore. From 2010 to the present time he has been a self-employed geologist.

EXPLORATION TIME TABLE

 

Francisco Garcia has estimated the first year's budget will be $62,117 but until the first year is completed it is difficult for him to estimate future years' budgets in a dollar amount due to not knowing how successful the first year's exploration will be. The following schedule shows the type of work which will be done each year if the first year's exploration program is successful.

Environmental Permits

 

Important components of environmental law in the Dominican Republic are:

 

-

An environmental permit is not necessary to conduct geological mapping, stream sediment, sampling, line cutting or geophysical surveys.

 

 

 

 

-

A letter of no objection (Carta de no objección) from the Ministry of Environment is all that is required for trenching and initial drilling, as long as access routes need not be constructed. This letter is based on a brief technical description submitted by the company.

 

 

 

 

-

Additional drilling and the construction of any access roads warrant an environmental license that is valid for one year. A report must be filed by the company and must include technical and financial aspects that take into account remediation costs.

 

 

 

 

-

At the feasibility stage, an environmental impact study must be submitted and approved by the government. Such a study could cost as high as $100,000.

 

With the Leomary concession being cancelled by the Director of Mines for the Dominican Republic, the Company has had to replace the Leomary with the Mogollon claim. In addition to losing the Leomary concession the Company's sole officer and director, Hilario Sosa passed away in late August of 2014 after a short illness. The shareholders appointed Ruben Ricardo Vasquez as it new sole director and officer. Therefore, the Company's address has been changed to Calle Gregorio de Lora, #5, Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic. This is the private residence of Mr. Vasquez who is our sole officer and director. At the present time Oroplata does not require its own office space due to having no employees, other than Mr. Vasquez, but will consider renting office space once our exploration and staff requirements demand it.

 

Oroplate owns no real estate as such but has an interest in the minerals on the Mogollon claim.

 

Competition

 

Oroplata is an exploration stage company which has to compete with other companies searching for minerals in the Dominican Republic or elsewhere in the world and seeking financing for the development of their specific properties. Often, if not in all cases, these other mineral companies are better financed, have properties which have had sufficient exploration work done on them to warrant a future investor to consider investing in their company rather than ours. There is only a limited number of investors willing to invest in a company which had no proven reserves and has just started its exploration work. These other mineral exploration companies might induce investors to consider their properties and not ours. Hence, any additional funds they receive will be directed to the future exploration work on their properties whereas our company might be strapped for funds and unable to do any worthwhile exploration work on the unidentified property it is presently seeking. We might never be able to compete against these other companies and hence never bring our new property into a stage where a production decision is to be made. In addition, we will have to compete with both large and small exploration companies for other resources we will need; professional geologists, transportation to and from the mineral claim, materials to set up a camp if required and supplies including drill rigs.

 

Oroplata's Main Product

 

Oroplata's main product will be the sale of gold that can be extracted from its Mogollon mineral claim once the claim has been explored. Since the Mogollon has yet to be explored by us, we have yet to find an ore body and therefore cannot sell any ore.

 

 
15
 

 

Exploration Facilities

 

There is no plant and equipment located on the Mogollon claim and none will be installed there until such time as Oroplata makes a decision as to whether or not to further develop and extract minerals from the Mogollon claim.

 

Source of Water and Power

 

There are plenty of natural rivers surrounding the Mogollon and a hydroelectric plant exists at about half a kilometer from the claim. There are potable water sources close to the claim and initial power can easily be produced by portable generators .

 

Natural Water Sources on the Mogollon Claim

 

 

The Company has no plans to construct a mill or smelter on the Mogollon mineral claim.

 

 
16
 

 

Other Mineral Properties

 

We are not contemplating any other mineral properties at this time.

 

Employees

 

Other than our sole director and officer we do not have any other employees. He devotes approximately 10 hours a month to our operations. Since he is not a professional geologist he will have to hire individuals who can assist in the Company's exploration activities and advise him of future exploration plans.

 

Research and Development Expenditures

 

Oroplata has not expended any money on research and development since its inception.

  

Patents and Trademarks

 

Oroplata does not have any patents or trademarks.

 

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.


We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings. There are no material proceedings to which our executive officer and director is a party adverse to us or has a material interest adverse to us. There are no legal actions, either pending or believed by management to happen, to which the Company is aware.

 

We are required by Section 78.090 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the "NRS") to maintain a registered agent in the State of Nevada. Our registered agent for this purpose is American Corporate Enterprise, Inc. of 123 W. Nye Lane, Suite 129, Carson City, NV 89706. All legal process and any demand or notice authorized by law to be served upon us may be served upon our registered agent in the State of Nevada in the manner provided in NRS 14.020(2).

PART II

 

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.

 

No Public Market for Common Stock

 

Our shares have recently been quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board ("OTCBB") under the symbol of ORRP.

 

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the Nasdaq system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or quotation system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of Securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type, size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.

 

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with: (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a suitably written statement.

 

 
18
 

 

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock if it becomes subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, if our common stock becomes subject to the penny stock rules, stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities.

 

Rule 144 Shares

 

In general, under Rule 144, a person who is not an affiliate of a company and who is not deemed to have been an affiliate of a company at any time during the three months preceding a sale and who has beneficially owned shares of a company's common stock for at least six months would be entitled to sell them without restriction, subject to the continued availability of current public information about the company (which current public information requirement is eliminated after a one-year holding period). In addition, a person, who is an affiliate and beneficially owned shares of a company's common stock for at least six months, will be entitled to sell within any three month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:

 

1.

One percent of the number of shares of the company's common stock then outstanding; or

 

 

2.

The average weekly trading volume of the company's common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on form 144 with respect to the sale.

 

However, Rule 144 is not available for securities initially issued by a company that has either no or nominal operations and no or nominal assets (a "shell company"), whether reporting or non-reporting, or a company that was at any time previously a shell company, unless the company:

 

·

has ceased to be a shell company;

 

 

·

is subject to the Exchange Act reporting obligations;

 

 

·

has filed all required Exchange Act reports during the preceding twelve months; and

 

 

·

at least one year has elapsed from the time the company filed with the SEC current Form 10 type information reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

 

"Shell Company Conditions"

 

At this time, we are considered a shell company. As a result, our major shareholder and director, being an affiliate, and any other person initially issued shares of our common stock, excluding those shares registered in our effective registration statement, will not be entitled to sell such shares until the Shell Company Conditions have been satisfied. Upon satisfaction of the Shell Company Conditions, such sales by our sole shareholder and director would be limited by the manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us as set forth above.

 

HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON STOCK

 

As of December 1, 2015, there were 41 registered holders of record of our common stock due to our previous sole director and officer, Mr. Hilario Sosa, selling 15,000,000 common shares under the Company's effective registration statement.

 

 
19
 

 

DIVIDENDS

 

Oroplata's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws do not restrict it from declaring dividends. Nevertheless, the Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:

 

1.

We would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or

2.

Our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of stockholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.

 

Oroplata has not declared any dividends since its inception and does not conceive that it will be declaring any dividends in the near future. Management plans to retain any excess funds in the Company for working capital and for further exploration on a future mineral claim.

 

Stock Options, Warrants and Rights

 

Oroplata does not have any outstanding stock options, warrants, rights or any other instrument which will allow the holders to convert into common shares of our Company.

 

RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

 

None.

 

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in the Form 10-K. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Form 10-K.

 

Oroplata is a start-up, exploration stage company. Oroplata has a limited operating history and has not yet generated or realized any revenues from its activities. It has lost the rights to the minerals on the Leomary claim which for several years it undertook exploration work thereon. Nevertheless, it has identified another mineral claim in the Dominican Republic called Mogollon Gold Claim which it is presently considering doing exploration work on it.

 

Oroplata's auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that its auditors believe there is substantial doubt that it can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless it obtains additional capital to pay for its operations. This is because it has not generated any revenues and no revenues are anticipated until it begins removing and selling minerals, if ever. Accordingly, it must raise cash from sources other than the sale of minerals found on its future unidentified mineral claim. That cash must be raised from other sources. Oroplata's only other source for cash at this time is investment by others in Oroplata, advances from its current sole director or institutional financing. Oroplata must raise cash to implement its planned exploration program and stay in business. 

 

Overview of Oroplata

 

Oroplata was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 6, 2011 for the purpose of acquiring rights to mineral properties with the eventual objective of being a producing mineral company, if and when it ever occurs. On January 10, 2012 Oroplata incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary under the laws of the Dominican Republic named "Oroplata Exploraciones E Ingenieria, Orexi, SRL" in order to hold the mineral rights to a claim named "Leomary Gold Claim". In order to determine what mineralization was present on the Leomary the Company hired Ismael Martinez, Professional Geologist, to undertake an exploration program on the Leomary at a cost of $25,800. The exploration program centered mainly on obtaining soil, sediment and rock samples from various areas within the claim to determine what minerals were present. Based on the results on these initial findings Oroplata undertook a further exploration program during the summer of 2013 to identify mineralization in other parts of the Leomary and to resample the previous high grade samples. This additional exploration work was completed at the end of August 2013. Unfortunately the Company lost the rights to any mineral on the Leomary.

Results of Operations

 

Revenue from Operations

 

Oroplata has not realized any revenue from its exploration activities on either the Leomary or the Mogollon and it is extremely doubtful that the new mineral property, being the Mogollon, will be able to produce any revenue for many years. Without an ore reserve Oroplata cannot seek substantial investors to further fund the Company so that production can be achieved. Not until commercial production is realized will Oroplata have any chance of recognizing any form of revenue.

 

Sources of Funds

 

To date the source of funds obtained by Oroplata is through the sale of 40,000,000 common shares to our former director and officer, Mr. Hilario Sosa, for a total consideration of $80,000. Prior to his untimely death, Mr. Sosa advanced $25,000 as a non-interest bearing loan payable on demand. No formal agreement between the Company and Mr. Sosa was entered into regarding these funds. These funds were used to undertake the next stage of the sampling program and provide a small amount of working capital. Oroplata will require additional funds over the next year and will either obtain further funds from its new sole director and officer, undertake a private placement or borrowing from institute lenders. The latter will be difficult for Oroplata to do until it is able to prove that the Mogollon claim has some merit.

 

Financial Activities since Inception

 

The following summarizes the financial activities of Oroplate since its inception and gives a breakdown of the expenses which are grouped in the attached financial statements herein.

Activities for the year ended September 30, 2015

 

With the loss of the Leomary the Company acquired a new mineral claim called Mogollon located in the Dominican Republic. With the acquisition our new mineral property the Company will require funds to proceed. Unless our director is willing to advance the required funds, at this point in time he has not committed himself to advance further funds, the Company will have sell treasury shares in a private placement to interested investors. This might be difficult since the market for natural resources and their costs are extremely low at the present time. Many investors might not be willing to invest in a start up situation where they might have to wait years before they realize a profit. If this funding is not available when needed the Company will not be able to undertake any future exploration program and might, after twelve months, have to cease operations.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2015, Oroplata had cash of $9,946 and a negative working capital position of $(90,720) as compared to cash of $22,248 and a negative working capital position of $(52,732) at September 30, 2014.

Represents the estimated cost of an initial exploration program on Mogollon claim. Oroplata does not have the funds to meet its estimated expenses over the next twelve months. Oroplata has the following options in order to raise the needed funds;

 

1.

Advances from Mr. Vasquez which at the present time he is not prepared to consider;

2.

Obtaining funds from a financial institution personally guaranteed by Mr. Vasquez; or

3.

Selling additional shares under a private placement from Treasury.

 

At the present time none of these options have been considered by Mr. Vasquez.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

None.

 

Trends

 

From Oroplata's date of inception it has been an exploration company which has produced no revenue and maybe will not be able to produce revenue. To the knowledge of its management Oroplata is unaware of any trends or past and future events which will have a material effect upon it, its income and business, both in the long and short term.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

In presenting Oroplata's financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepting accounting principles, or GAAP, Oroplata is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses and related disclosures.

 

Some of the estimates and assumptions Oroplata is required to make relate to matters that are inherently uncertain as they pertain to future events. Oroplata bases these estimates and assumptions on historical experience or on various other factors that it believes to be reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, Oroplata reconsiders and evaluates its estimates and assumptions. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates.

 

Oroplata believes that the critical accounting policies listed below involve its more significant judgments, assumptions and estimates and, therefore, could have the greatest potential impact on its financial statements. In addition, Oroplata believes that a discussion of these policies is necessary to understand and evaluate the financial statements contained in this Form 10-K.

 

Estimates and Assumptions

 

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance with general accepted accounting principles. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were assumed in preparing these financial statements.

 

Mineral claim acquisition and exploration costs

 

The cost of acquiring mineral properties or claims is initially capitalized and then tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. Mineral exploration costs are expensed as incurred.

 

 
24
 

 

Income Taxes

 

Oroplata utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the liability method deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and the tax bases of the assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect, when the differences are expected to be reversed. An allowance against deferred tax assets is recorded, when it is more likely than not, that such tax benefits will not be realized.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. No new standards had any material effect on these financial statements, except for changes in reporting Development Stage Enterprises. The accounting pronouncements issued subsequent to the date of these financial statements that were considered significant by management were evaluated for the potential effect on these consolidated financial statements. Management does not believe any of the subsequent pronouncements will have a material effect on these consolidated financial statements as presented and does not anticipate the need for any future restatement of these consolidated financial statements because of the retro-active application of any accounting pronouncements issued subsequent to September 30, 2015 through the date these financial statements were issued.

 

On June 10, 2014 the FASB issued authoritative guidance which eliminates the concept of a development stage entity, which includes exploration stage. The incremental reporting requirements for presenting the development stage operations and cash flows since inception will no longer apply to exploration stage entities. The amendments related to the elimination of inception-to-date information and the other remaining disclosure requirements of Topic 915 are to be applied retrospectively and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company previously had been considered an exploration stage entity as its operations had not begun and has elected early adoption of this guidance effective with this filing.

 

Products and Gold

 

Until such a time that we explore and identify an ore body on the Mogollon claim we will have no minerals to sell. It will take many years to prove any minerals on the Mogollon claim and there may be no commercial minerals after we have completed an extensive exploration program.

 

Other Minerals

 

We have not undertaken sufficient exploration work to know what other minerals might be located on the Mogollon claim.

 

Foreign Currency

 

Our Company has conducted exploration activities in the Dominican Republic and has paid its expenses in United States Dollars.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To The Board of Directors and Stockholders of 

Oroplata Resources, Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Oroplata Resources, Inc. (the Company) as of September 30, 2015, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Oroplata Resources, Inc. as of September 30, 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has negative working capital and has not generated revenues to cover operating expenses. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to this matter are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

The Board of Directors and Stockholders 

Oroplata Resources, Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Oroplata Resources, Inc. as of September 30, 2014, and the related statement of operations, stockholders' deficiency, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. The financial statements as of and for the year ended September 30, 2013 were audited by other auditors who issued an unqualified opinion on December 24, 2013.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Oroplata Resources, Inc. at September 30, 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has significant net losses and cash flow deficiencies. Those conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters are described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

OROPLATA RESOURCES, INC.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2015

 

1. Basis of presentation and Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Oroplata Resources, Inc. ("Oroplata" or "the Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting procedures in the United States for the year ended September 30, 2015. Oroplata was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 6, 2011 for the purpose of acquiring and developing mineral properties. The Company has a wholly-owned subsidiary called Oroplata Exploraciones E Ingenieria SRL which was incorporated in the Dominican Republic on January 10, 2012.

 

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. At September 30, 2015, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations, had accumulated losses of $170,720 since its inception, had a negative working capital position of $(90,720), and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.

 

The Company expects to continue to incur substantial losses as it executes its business plan of mining its interest in a mineral property and does not expect to attain profitability in the near future. Since its inception, the Company has funded operations through the issuance of shares to its sole officer and director and from advances made by him for certain office expenses. The Company's future operations are dependent upon external funding and its ability to execute its business plan in mining its interest in a mineral property, realizing sales from its mining activities and controlling expenses. Management believes that sufficient funding may be available from additional borrowings and private placements to meet its business objectives including anticipated cash needs for working capital, for a reasonable period of time. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient funds to continue the exploration of its mineral property, or if obtained, upon terms favorable to the Company.

 

Accounting Method

 

The Company's financial statements are presented in United States dollars and are prepared using the accrual method of accounting which conforms to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP").

 

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic net income (loss) per share amounts are computed based on the weighted average number of shares actually outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share amounts are computed using the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding as if shares had been issued on the exercise of the common share rights unless the exercise becomes anti-dilutive and then the basic and diluted per share amounts are the same.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are provided in accordance with Codification topic 740, "Income Taxes", which requires an asset and liability approach for the financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Current income tax expense (benefit) is the amount of income taxes expected to be payable (receivable) for the current year. A deferred tax asset and/or liability is computed for both the expected future impact of differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred income tax expense is generally the net change during the year in the deferred income tax asset and liability. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be "more likely than not" realized in future tax returns. Tax rate changes and changes in tax laws are reflected in income in the period such changes are enacted.

$(51,216)

 

$-

 

 

On September 30, 2015 the Company had a net operating loss carry forward of $170,720 for income tax purposes. The tax benefit of approximately $51,216 from the loss carry forward has been fully offset by a valuation allowance. The Company has three open tax years for federal income tax purposes.

 

Due to the Company's net loss position from inception on October 6, 2011 to September 30, 2015, there was no provision for income taxes recorded. As a result of the Company's losses to date, there exists doubt as to the ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets. Accordingly, a valuation allowance equal to the total deferred tax assets has been recorded at September 30, 2015.

 

The Company includes interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes, if any, in its statements of operations and general and administrative expenses. As of September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties relating to uncertain tax positions.

 

Long-lived Assets

 

Long-Lived assets, such as property and equipment, mineral properties, and purchased intangibles with finite lives (subject to amortization), are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable in accordance with Codification topic 360 "Property, Plant, and Equipment". Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life.

 

 
34
 

 

OROPLATA RESOURCES, INC.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2015

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued

 

Recoverability of assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by an asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. The estimated fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. Any impairment in value is recognized as an expense in the period when the impairment occurs.

 

Foreign Currency Translations

 

The records of the Company are maintained in United States dollars and this is the Company's functional and reporting currency. Transactions denominated in other than the United States dollar are translated as follows with the related transaction gains and losses being recorded in the Statement of Operations:

 

Monetary items are recorded at the rate of exchange prevailing as at the balance sheet date;

 

Non-Monetary items including equity are recorded at the historical rate of exchange; and

 

Revenues and expenses are recorded at the period average in which the transaction occurred.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue from the sale of minerals will be recognized when a contract is in place and minerals are delivered to the customer.

 

Mineral claim acquisition and exploration costs

 

The cost of acquiring mineral properties or claims is initially capitalized and then tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. Mineral exploration costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Advertising and Market Development

 

The Company expenses advertising and market development costs as incurred.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Codification topic 825, "Financial Instruments", requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments when it is practicable to estimate that value. The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments as of September 30, 2015 approximate their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued

 

Estimates and Assumptions

 

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance with general accepted accounting principles. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were assumed in preparing these financial statements.

 

Statement of Cash Flows

 

For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. No new standards had any material effect on these financial statements, except for changes in reporting Development Stage Enterprises. The accounting pronouncements issued subsequent to the date of these financial statements that were considered significant by management were evaluated for the potential effect on these consolidated financial statements. Management does not believe any of the subsequent pronouncements will have a material effect on these consolidated financial statements as presented and does not anticipate the need for any future restatement of these consolidated financial statements because of the retro-active application of any accounting pronouncements issued subsequent to September 30, 2015 through the date these financial statements were issued.

 

On June 10, 2014 the FASB issued authoritative guidance which eliminates the concept of a development stage entity, which includes exploration stage. The incremental reporting requirements for presenting the development stage operations and cash flows since inception will no longer apply to exploration stage entities. The amendments related to the elimination of inception-to-date information and the other remaining disclosure requirements of Topic 915 are to be applied retrospectively and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company previously had been considered an exploration stage entity as its operations had not begun and has elected early adoption of this guidance effective with this filing.

3. Mineral property rights

 

On December 20, 2011, the Company purchased a 100% interest in the Leomary Gold Claim ("Leomary") consisting of 4,500 mining hectors located in the province of Monseñor Nouelan, municipality of Bonao, for the sum of $13,000. At the beginning of September 2014, the Director of Mining for the Dominican Republic cancelled the Company's interest in the Leomary Gold Claim.

 

The Company has acquired the mineral rights to the Mogollon claim located in the Province of San Juan near the villages of Solorin and El Toro in the Dominican Republic for a price of $10,000 which included the cost of a geological report.

 

4. Significant transactions with related party

 

During the year ended September 30, 2015, the sole director and officer made advances to the Company in the amount of $20,639 to fund daily operations of the Company. The outstanding balance as of September 30, 2015 and 2014 is $81,650 and $61,011 respectively. These advances are non-interest bearing and payable on demand.

 

The sole officer and director of the Company has acquired 62.5% of the common stock issued.

 

5. Common stock

a. On July 6, 2015, DKM Certified Public Accountants ("DKM") declined to stand for appointment as the Company's independent accountant.

 

b. DKM's report on the financial statements for the years ended September 30, 2014, contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to audit scope or accounting, except that the report contained an explanatory paragraph stating that there was substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

 

c. Our Board of Directors participated in and approved the decision to change independent accountants. Through the period covered by the financial review of financial statements of the quarterly period March 31, 2015, there have been no disagreements with DKM on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of DKM, would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the financial statements. Through the interim period July 6, 2015, there have been no disagreements with DKM on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of DKM would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the financial statements. 

 

d. We have authorized DKM to respond fully to the inquiries of the successor accountant. 

 

e. During the interim period through September 30, 2015, there have been no reportable events with us as set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation SK. 

 

f. The Company provided a copy of the foregoing disclosures to DKM prior to the date of the filing of the Form 8-K dated July 8, 2015 and requested that DKM furnish a letter addressed to the Securities & Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the statements in the Form 8-K mentioned abovet. A copy of such letter was filed as Exhibit 16.1 to the Form 8-K. 

 

(2) New Independent Accountants: 

 

a. On July 8, 2015 the Company engaged Heaton & Company, PLLC of Farmington, Utah, as its new registered independent public accountant. During the years ended September 30, 2014, and 2013, and prior to July 6, 2015, the Company did not consult with Heaton & Company, PLLC regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements by Heaton & Company, PLLC, in either case where written or oral advice provided by Heaton & Company, PLLC would be an important factor considered by us in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issues or (iii) any other matter that was the subject of a disagreement between us and our former auditor or was a reportable event (as described in Items 304(a)(1)(iv) or Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation SK, respectively). 

 

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, being our sole officer and director, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) as of September 30, 2015 (the "Evaluation Date"). Based on that evaluation, the sole director and officer has concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the Evaluation Date as a result of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting discussed below.

 

 
38
 

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are those controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our sole director and officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Notwithstanding the assessment that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective and that there were material weaknesses as identified below, we believe that our financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015 fairly present our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in all material respects.

 

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company's internal control over financial reporting is a process, under the supervision of our sole director and officer, designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company's financial statements for external purposes in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

 

-

Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company's assets;

-

Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our sole director and officer; and

-

Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

The Company's sole director and officer conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2015, based on criteria established in Internal Control –Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"). As a result of this assessment, management identified a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting.

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

 
39
 

 

The material weakness identified is described below.

 

1.

Certain entity level controls establishing a "tone at the top" were considered material weaknesses. As of September 30, 2015, the Company did not have a separate audit committee or a policy on fraud. A whistleblower policy is not necessary given the small size of the organization.

2.

Due to the significant number and magnitude of out-of-period adjustments identified during the year- end closing process, management has concluded that the controls over the period-end financial reporting process were not operating effectively. A material weakness in the period-end financial reporting process could result in us not being able to meet our regulatory filing deadlines and, if not remediated, has the potential to cause a material misstatement or to miss a filing deadline in the future. Management override of existing controls is possible given the small size of the organization and lack of personnel.

3.

There is no system in place to review and monitor internal control over financial reporting. The Company maintains an insufficient complement of personnel to carry out ongoing monitoring responsibilities and ensure effective internal control over financial reporting.

 

As a result of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described above, the Company's sole director and officer has concluded that, as of September 30, 2015, the Company's internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on the criteria in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by COSO.

 

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. We were not required to have, nor have we, engaged our independent registered public accounting firm to perform an audit of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management's report in this Annual Report.

 

Changes in Internal Controls

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Term of Office

 

Presently Oroplata has only one member of the Board of Directors. This is expected to change once our sole officer and director can determine what other individuals would benefit Oroplata by serving on its Board. Members of Oroplata's board of directors are appointed to hold office until the next annual meeting of our stockholders or until his or her successor is elected and qualified, or until they resign or are removed in accordance with the provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes. Our officers are appointed by our board of directors and hold office until removed by the board.

 

Committees of the Board of Directors

 

Oroplata does not have a separately constituted audit committee, compensation committee, nominating committee, executive committee or any other committees responsible to the Board of Directors.

 

Outstanding Equity Awards

 

There are no stock option or future rights to any of the Company's capital stock. There are no stock incentive plans in place.

Except as indicated below, to the knowledge of our Company, during the past ten years, no present or former director or officer:

 

(1)

Board of Directors Audit Committee

 

Below is a description of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. The Charter of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors sets forth the responsibilities of the Audit Committee. The primary function of the Audit Committee is to oversee and monitor the Company's accounting and reporting processes and the audits of the Company's financial statements.

 

With only one director and officer at the present time there is basically no audit committee. Management is planning to find an independent third party who is considered an expert to become a member of the audit committee.

 

Apart from the Audit Committee, the Company has no other Board committees.

 

Conflicts of Interest

 

To ensure that potential conflicts of interest are avoided or declared to our Company and its shareholders and to comply with the requirements of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002, our former sole director and officer adopted, on October 7, 2011, a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. Oroplata's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics embodies our commitment to such ethical principles and sets forth the responsibilities of Oroplata and its officer and director to its shareholders, employees, customers, lenders and other stakeholders. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics addresses general business ethical principles and other relevant issues.

 

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

 

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our securities ("Reporting Persons"), to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Reporting Persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all forms they file pursuant to Section 16(a). Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, we believe that, during the last fiscal year, our sole director and officer has failed to file, on a timely basis, the identified reports required by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act:

 

Name and Principal Position

 

Number of Late

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

 

Summary Compensation Table

 

No compensation was awarded to, earned by, or paid to our sole officer and director during the period from October 6, 2011 (date of inception) to September 30, 2015.

 

Outstanding Equity Awards

 

Since incorporation on October 6, 2011, we have not granted any stock options or stock appreciation rights to our executive officer or director.

 

Compensation of Director and Officer

 

We have no standard arrangement to compensate our director for his services in his capacity as a director. There is no compensation arrangement, either written or unwritten, to compensate our officer and director. In the future our Directors will not be compensated for meetings attended. All travel and lodging expenses associated with corporate matters are reimbursed by us, if and when incurred.

 

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

 

The following table sets forth certain information concerning the number of shares of our common stock owned beneficially as of December 1, 2015 by: (i) each person (including any group) known to us to own more than five percent (5%) of any class of our voting securities of our shares of common stock, (ii) our executive officers and directors, and (iii) our named executive officers as defined in Item 402(m)(2) of Regulation S-K.

Notes:

 

(1)

A beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person's actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding on September 30, 2015. As of December 1, 2015, there were 40,000,000 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.

 

 
44
 

 

Changes in Control

 

There are no arrangements which may result in a change in control in the future other than our former director and officer, Hilario Sosa, passed away during the latter part of 2014 and has been replaced by Ruben Ricardo Vasquez who has acquired the shares previously owned by Mr. Sosa.

 

Holders of Common shares

 

As of the date of this Form 10-K the Company had 41 shareholders including our sole officer and director. The number of shares held by the officer and director is 25,000,000 common shares.

 

Market Information

 

Oroplata's stock is quoted on the OTCBB under the symbol of ORRP. Although the OTCBB does not have any listing requirements per se, to be eligible for quotation on the OTCBB, issuers must remain current in their filings with the SEC; being as a minimum Forms 10-Q and 10-K. Market makers will not be permitted to begin quotation of a security whose issuer does not meet these filing requirements. Securities already quoted on the OTCBB that become delinquent in their required filings will be moved following a 30 or 60 day grace period if they do not make their filing during that time. If our common stock is not quoted on the OTCBB, there will be no market for trading in our common stock. This would make it far more difficult for stockholders to dispose of their common stock. This could have an adverse effect on the price of the common stock.

 

With a lack of liquidity in our common stock, trading prices might be volatile with wide fluctuations. This assumes that there will be a secondary market at all.

 

There are no common shares subject to outstanding options, warrants or securities convertible into common equity of Oroplata. The number of shares presently subject to Rule 144 is 25,000,000 shares. The share certificate has the appropriate legend affixed thereto. Presently, under Rule 144, the number of shares which could be sold, if an application is made, is 250,000 shares. There are no shares being offered pursuant to an employee benefit plan or dividend reinvestment plan. In addition, there are no outstanding options or warrants to purchase common shares or shares convertible into common shares of Oroplata.

 

Dividend Policy

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to support our operations and finance the growth and development of our business. We do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. Any future determination related to dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors

 

 
45
 

 

Equity Compensation Plans

 

There are no securities authorized for issuance under equity compensation plans or individual compensation arrangements.

 

Penny Stock Rule

 

Oroplata's common stock is considered to be a "penny stock" because it meets one or more of the definitions in SEC Rule 3a51-1:

 

(i)

It has a price less than five dollars per share;

(ii)

It is not traded on a recognized national exchange;

(iii)

It is not quoted on a FINRA automated quotation system (NASDAQ), or even if so, has a price of less than five dollars per share; or

(iv)

It is issued by a company with net tangible assets of less than $2,000,000, if in business more than three years continuously, or $5,000,000, if the business is less than three years continuously or with average revenues of less than $6,000,000 for the past three years.

 

A broker-dealer will have to undertake certain administrative functions required when dealing win a penny stock transaction. Disclosure forms detailing the level of risk in acquiring Oroplata's shares will have to be sent to an interested investor, current bid and offer quotations will have to be provided with an indication as to what compensation the broker-dealer and the salesperson will be receiving from this transaction and a monthly statement showing the closing month price of the shares being held by the investor. In addition, the broker-dealer will have to receive from the investor a written agreement consenting to the transaction. This additional administrative work might make the broker-dealer reluctant to participate in the purchase and sale of Oroplata's shares. 

 

From Oroplata's point of view, being subject to the Penny Stock Rule could make it extremely difficult for it to attract new investors for future capital requirements since many financial institutions are restricted under their by-laws from investing in shares under a certain dollar amount. Ordinary investors might not be willing to subscribe to shares in the capital stock of Oroplata due to the uncertainty as to whether the share price will ever be high enough that the Penny Stock Rule is no longer a concern.

 

In addition, the stock market in general, and the market prices for thinly traded companies in particular, have experienced extreme volatility that often has been unrelated to the operating performance of such companies. These wide fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our shares regardless of our future performance and that of Oroplata. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a security, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against such company. Such litigation, if instituted, whether successful or not, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management's attention and resources, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

Any new investor purchasing shares in our Company might consider whether they will be able to sell their shares at a given price since if no broker-dealer becomes involved with Oroplata and Oroplata is unable to raise future investment capital the price per share may deteriorate to a point that an investor's entire investment could be lost.

 

Outstanding Stock Opinion, Purchase Warrants and Convertible Securities

 

Oroplata has not issued any stock options to its director and officer nor has it attached share purchase warrants to the shares issued and outstanding. There are no convertible securities as of the date of this Form 10- K/A. Oroplata has not registered any shares for sale by security holders under the Securities Act other than as disclosed in this Form 10-K/A.

  

 
46
 

 

Our authorized capital consists of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which 40,000,000 shares are presently issued.

 

The holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends as may be declared by our Board of Directors; are entitled to share ratably in all of our assets available for distribution upon winding up of the affairs our Company; and are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters on which shareholders may vote at all Meetings of the shareholders.

 

The shareholders are not entitled to preference as to dividends or interest; preemptive rights to purchase in new issues of shares; preference upon liquidation; or any other special rights or preferences.

 

There are no restrictions on dividends under any loan or other financing arrangements.

 

Non-Cumulative Voting.

 

The holders of our shares of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of such outstanding shares, voting for the election of Directors, can elect all of the Directors to be elected, if they so choose. In such event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any of our Directors.

 

Employment Agreements

 

We have no employment agreements with our executive officer.

 

Equity Compensation Plans, Stock Options, Bonus Plans

 

No such plans or options exist. None have been approved or are anticipated. No Compensation Committee exists either.

 

Pension Benefits

 

We do not maintain any defined benefit pension plans.

 

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

 

We do not maintain any nonqualified deferred compensation plans.

 

Change in Control of Our Company

 

We do not know of any arrangements which might result in a change in control. As mentioned elsewhere in this Form 10-K our former director and officer passed away and has been replaced by Ruben Ricardo Vasquez.

 

Registered Agent

 

We are required by Section 78.090 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the "NRS") to maintain a registered agent in the State of Nevada. Our registered agent for this purpose is American Corporate Enterprises, 123 W Nye Lane, Suite 129, Carson City, NV 89703. All legal process and any demand or notice authorized by law to be served upon us may be served upon our registered agent in the State of Nevada in the manner provided in NRS 14.020(2).

 

 
47
 

 

Transfer Agent

 

We have engaged the service of Action Stock Transfer Corp., Suite 214 – 2469 E. Fort Union Blvd., Salt lake City, Utah, 84121, to act as transfer and registrar.

 

Debt Securities and Other Securities

 

There are no debt securities outstanding or other securities.

 

Rule 144 Share Restrictions 

 

Under Rule 144, an individual who is not an affiliate of our Company and has not been an affiliate at any time during the three months preceding a sale and has been the beneficial owner of our shares for at least six months would be entitled to sell them without restriction. This is subject to the continued availability of current public information about us for the first year which can be eliminated after a one-year hold.

 

Whereas an individual who is deemed to be an affiliate and has beneficially owned shares in our Company for at least six months clan sell their shares in a given three month period as follows:

 

1. One percent of the number of shares of our Company's common stock then outstanding, which in the case of our current director and officer, will equal approximately 40,000 shares as of the date of this Form 10-K/A; or
2.

The average weekly trading volume of our company's common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on form 144 with respect to the sale.

 

Under Rule 405 of the Securities Act, a reporting or non-reporting shell company cannot sell shares under Rule 144, unless the company: (i) has ceased to be a shell company; (ii) is subject to the Exchange Act reporting obligations; (iii) has filed all required Exchange Act reports during the preceding twelve months; (iv) and at least one year has elapsed from the time the company filed with the SEC, current Form 10 type information reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

 

ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISION

 

In accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada and the Securities Regulation Act.

 

The Chapter 78 of Nevada Revised Statutes contains a provision governing "acquisition of controlling interest." This law provides generally that any person or entity that acquires 20% or more of the outstanding voting shares of a publicly-held Nevada corporation in the secondary public or private market may be denied voting rights with respect to the acquired shares, unless a majority of the disinterested shareholders of the corporation elects to restore such voting rights in whole or in part. The control share acquisition act provides that a person or entity acquires "control shares" whenever it acquires shares that, but for the operation of the control share acquisition act, would bring its voting power within any of the following three ranges: 20 to 33 1/3%; 33 1/3 to 50%; or more than 50%.

 

A "control share acquisition" is generally defined as the direct or indirect acquisition of either ownership or voting power associated with issued and outstanding control shares. The shareholders or board of directors of a corporation may elect to exempt the stock of the corporation from the provisions of the control share acquisition act through adoption of a provision to that effect in the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the corporation. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws do not exempt our common stock from the control share acquisition act.

 

The control share acquisition act is applicable only to shares of "Issuing Corporations" as defined by the Nevada law. An Issuing Corporation is a Nevada corporation, which: has 200 or more shareholders, with at least 100 of such shareholders being both shareholders of record and residents of Nevada; and does business in Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation.

 

 
48
 

 

At this time, we do not have 100 shareholders of record resident of Nevada. Therefore, the provisions of the control share acquisition act do not apply to acquisitions of our shares and will not until such time as these requirements have been met. At such time as they may apply, the provisions of the control share acquisition act may discourage companies or persons interested in acquiring a significant interest in or control of us, regardless of whether such acquisition may be in the interest of our shareholders.

 

The Nevada "Combination with Interested Shareholders Statute" may also have an effect of delaying or making it more difficult to effect a change in control of us. This statute prevents an "interested shareholder" and a resident domestic Nevada corporation from entering into a "combination," unless certain conditions are met. The statute defines "combination" to include any merger or consolidation with an "interested shareholder," or any sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition, in one transaction or a series of transactions with an "interested shareholder" having: an aggregate market value equal to 5 percent or more of the aggregate market value of the assets of the corporation; an aggregate market value equal to 5 percent or more of the aggregate market value of all outstanding shares of the corporation; or representing 10 percent or more of the earning power or net income of the corporation.

 

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

 

Director Independence

 

Ruben Ricardo Vasquez is not independent within the meaning of Section 5605 of NASDAQ.

 

Board Committees

 

The Audit Committee

 

We have an Audit Committee whose only member consists of Ruben Ricardo Vasquez, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer who is not independent. Further, he can be considered an "audit committee financial expert" as defined in Item 401 of Regulation S-K since he has a background in accounting and audit. It is our intention to seek another individual for the Audit Committee but to date none have been identified.

 

Apart from the Audit Committee, we have no other Board Committees. Since inception, our Board has conducted its business entirely by consent resolutions.

 

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTORS' INDEPENDENCE

 

Except as described below, none of the following parties have, since our date of incorporation, had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction with us or in any presently proposed transaction that have or will materially affect us, other than as noted in this section:

 

1.

Any of our directors or officers;

2.

Any person proposed as a nominee for election as a director;

3.

Any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, shares carrying more than 5% of the voting rights attached to our outstanding shares of common stock;

4.

On October 14, 2011, we issued 40,000,000 shares of common stock to our previous Chief Executive Officer, President and Director at a price of $0.001 per share. The shares were issued pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and are restricted shares as defined in the Securities Act.

 

ITEM 14. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTORS INDEPENDENCE

 

Under our effective registration statement our former sole director and officer was able to sell 15,000,000 common shares leaving him with a balance of 25,000,000 common shares.

 

Directors' Independence

 

Under NASDAQ Rule 4200(a)(15), a director is not considered to be independent if he or she is also an executive officer or employee of the corporation. As Ruben Ricardo Vasquez is an officer and director, we have determined that he is not an independent director as defined under NASDAQ Rule 4200(a)(15).

 

The Company does not have any promoters involved with it.
